7.x-3.x disables all additional settings by default, this affects the search result output because currently its relying on theme settings to know what to output, so if the search result setting is OFF, only the search result title will print.

Needs re factoring, consider removing all search result settings, this is a minor feature of the theme and can quite possibly would be better handled by one of the search configuration type modules.

As per the original thread, if you are interested to and are happy with the base code for Search Config, I am happy to grant co-maintainer rights if you want to personally handle this yourself. I would need to get in contact with canen to either to get him to grant access or to transfer ownership to me so that I can grant access myself.

Asked for authorship to get contributor permission on Search Config (SC) but this will take a few days.

Looking at the bigger picture, Custom Search is becoming more popular and feature rich and this overlaps significantly now. From the module page:

This module is inspired by some modules that implements some of these options (search_config, search_type, custom_search_box).

I took on SC when it proved difficult to get progress on Search Restrict (SR) Drupal 7 port moving after months and months in the issue queues. (Note: A SR 7.x was released within a few weeks after SC 7.x.) At the time, I saw the overhead of the form related tasks as a burden, but now I love the combination of these features in a single module. The flip side of the coin - I hate seeing duplicate projects.

I'm going to assess all related modules more in the next few days.

Sounds good Alan, looking forward to your assessment. Always a good practice.

OK, after some long and hard thinking on this I have:

1. removed custom theme settings for search
2. Made the form alter for advanced search opt IN.

I just don't want more support requests about this and the feature is there for those who wish to take advantage of it.
